U410 touch WiFi issues after upgrading to windows 8.1

Hi all,
I have a U410 touch and yesterday I upgraded to windows 8.1
I have major WiFi issues.
connection drops after a few minutes giving limited. troblesshooting resets the adapter saying ''the default gateway is not accessible '' is fixed. But after a few minutes the problem comes back. and it goes like this forever.
I have the Intel Centrino N-2230 and I installed the driver I found here (15.10.3.2).
I''ve tried to uncheck the power management option but the problem is still there.
I also have other issues with the dolby system (I see others have the same problem )and my touch screen is not working.
any help will be greatly appreciated
thanks!

Hi-
I am also running into the same issue with my Lenovo U410 and it is really frustrating. I also have Centrino Wireless chip with driver version 15.10.3.2 and I have windows 8.1
I bought the laptop from Costco and was having similar issues. I sent it back to Costco Concierge who apparently replaced the wireless chipset on this laptop but now I am getting this issue.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Networking Issues after Upgrading to Windows 8.1

I have a Windows 8 desktop PC that is working fine with my network. I can browse the Internet fine using all major browsers etc. After upgrading to Windows 8.1 through the Windows Store I noticed that my wired networking was not working correctly.
The status of the network does not change (i.e. it doesn't change to Limited Connectivity) however browsing to sites in Chrome, IE or Firefox doesn't work as well as Windows 8.
IE11 gives me the error "This page can't be displayed, make sure the web address is correct" and other browsers give a similar error. I normally have to refresh 2-3 times to get a new page to load, sometimes even more. Everything works
fine from a laptop connected at the same time so it isn't an network issue with my provider.
I thought this might be a driver issue with the two on-board Marvell wired network adapters. I wasn't able to rollback the driver to older versions I found on the Internet. I then purchased another network card, Intel Desktop gigabit and the
issue still persists with that adapter. I then tried a USB wireless adapter and the issue still persists using wifi with the wired adapters disabled. I tried a new network cable and no luck either. I also tried resetting the IP stack using
the various netsh commands.
After that I thought I might try reset the Windows 8.1 PC, however that didn't work as I didn't have the restore image available as I upgraded from the Windows Store. I then tried installing Windows 8.1 fresh using a ISO with my Windows 8 key using
some of the recent guides that are available. That all worked but it didn't fix the networking issues.
I re-installed Windows 8.0 and the networking is now fixed and back to working normal again. I'd like to try again but I think I will have the same problems. I can't imagine why this would be a driver issue as I tried 3 different network adapters
and two installs of Windows 8.1. Any ideas what would be the cause of the Windows 8.1 issue?

HI,
Since this issue only occurred in the your desktop PC, and many network adapters you tried, failed, thus I think maybe we should focus on the model of your desktop PC, I suggest you update the BIOS and chipset from the manufacture to improve
the performance of win8.1.
Please also test this issue in safe mode with networking.
Please refer to:

The issue occurs in safe mode as well under Windows 8.1. The motherboard is an Asus P5B Premium, however it works on Windows 8. How would I update the chipset when booted into Windows 8.1? In Device Manager it wasn't allowing me to update
the network drivers as they were newer versions already installed.
Edit: I also installed at Intel Chipset Device software dated 8/8/2013 with version 9.4.0.1026 and the issue still occurs. I am also running the latest BIOS that is available.

Iphone 5s have wifi issue after upgraded to ios8.

Iphone 5S have wifi issue afetr upgraded to IOS 8. Does Apple know about this?? Its really frustrating the signal is weak.

If you look at google there are some problems with ios8 and it happens to be wifi issue for me.
If I look at google, I will find that people reporting problems with every version of iOS. And accounts of being abducted by aliens. Just because you are having a WiFi issue does not necessarily mean the issue is with iOS 8 (correlation does not prove causality). Until you've done proper trouble shooting (or had Apple do it for you if you don't feel equipped), it's almost impossible to say why you are having a problem.
My iPhone 5S is not having any issues with iOS 8.

WiFi problem after upgrading to Windows 8.1 Lenovo R400 ThinkPad

I have this problem after updating to 8 to 8.1
Right after updating to 8 to 8.1, all of a sudden my wifi stops working. I used my philips external wifi usb stick and now I'm able to get the internet going.
However if I disconnect my philips usb I no longer get the internet because the built in wifi that came with the R400 ThinkPad no longer works. I went through the device manager and under properties it tells me, 'Device not working properly' however it is up to date.

Hi Matti,
Thank you for replying back!
I suggest you to reinstall the Windows 8.1, as all the windows driver will not update, if you have upgraded the Windows 8 to Windows 8.1.
Please download Windows 8.1 separately and reinstall the OS, I hope this may resolve the issue.
Note: I am not suggesting for clean installation, only reinstalling the same OS.
Do not update the drivers from ThinkVantage system update utility. I suggest you to uninstall the current drivers and download the drivers manually for Windows 8.1 and install it.
Below is the link to enter the downloads page and download updates accordingly, please click on "Select Product" then in "QUICK PATH" enter the MTM no. select the exact model.

Split x2 - Touchpad issue after upgrading to Windows 8.1

Hello,
I bought this Split x 2 a week ago and it came with WIndows 8. Everything was working fine until I upgraded to WIndows 8.1. Now my Touchpad will freeze some times and I have to log out and log back in to my profile to unfreeze the touchpad other times I can get it to unfreeze by resetting the release touch screen buttom.
I called HP customer service and they said it was a Microsoft issue and transfer me to them. Microsoft said it was a hardware (HP) Issue and that i needed to go back to the store where I bought it
(BestBuy). I took it back yesterday to BestBuy and they gave me a knew one. I did the same thing and upgraded to Windows 8.1 and touchpad issues is back. So pretty sure is not a hardware issue.
All windows updates are completed
I checked the Touchpad's Driver and it is up to date.
NOTE: I plugged a wireless mouse to my laptop and when the touchpad freezes the wireless mouse still works.
Does anyone know a fix for this issue? Everything else works great on the laptop is just very inconvenient when you are working and you have to log out to get your touchpat to work again.
Any help would be appreaciate it.

Well you gave me a great idea. So the same thing happened to me, the install failed due to the driver signature. I uninstalled the current driver, then turned off the feature that requires signed drivers and installed the driver. Everything is working so far.... the only odd thing is it doesn't show the driver any where. I am going to try a few other things BUT the mouse hasn't stopped working for a good half hour.

[Forum FAQ] SkyDrive synchronization issue after upgrading to Windows 8.1

After Windows 8.1 released, users may encounter the issues about syncing files in SkyDrive. There are the error messages you may find:
Error 0xS00705B4: This operation returned because the timeout period expired
Sorry, the action couldn't be completed because the file hasn't finished uploading. Try again later
Error 80070490: element is not found.
Many SkyDrive folders in library like SkyDrive [1], SkyDrive [2] …
We just would like to point out some possible causes of this issue and give you some suggestions to troubleshoot it.
Cause:
Location was messed up during upgrade.
Pending uploading or downloading task blocked in synchronization.
SkyDrive was hang.
GPO blocked the syncing behavior
The user profile folder was relocated after upgrading.
How to fix:
Suggestions 1: Checking the consistence of locations on both registry key and SkyDrive properties:
Right click SkyDrive -> Properties -> Location tab
Open regedit.exe, locate to the following key and check the location.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SkyDrive
Suggestion 2: For many SkyDrive
folders:
Check which one can be explored properly with right files and relocate the SkyDrive folder via changing the settings in
suggestion 1.
Or create a new folder for relocating SkyDrive’s.
Suggestion 3: End the Skydrive.exe process and restart in command or disconnect and reconnect your MS account in SkyDrive to clear the pending task:
Press Win+R to open run, and type following commands one by one:
%windir%\system32\skydrive.exe /shutdown
%windir%\system32\skydrive.exe
Log off your MS account in SkyDrive and log in again to check the issue.
Suggestion 4: Check the GPO settings in both gpedit.msc and regedit.exe:
In GPO: If User Configuration –> Administrative Templates
–> Desktop -> Prohibit User from manually redirecting Profile Folders
is enabled, please disable it. Don’t forget to force update the policy changes: run command
gpupdate /force as admin.
In regedit: if DisablePersonalDirChange is set to 1 under
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer, please change it to 0 and start the SkyDrive to check the results.
At the end, we can’t assure that these suggestions can fix all such
issues. If you need further help, it’s ok to feedback here or submit a new thread with the
SkyDrive.exe.err.**.log under C:\Users\[Your name]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\SkyDrive\logs
uploaded for research.

I wrote a blog post back in January which describes a similar issue with the SkyDrive / OneDrive app in Windows 8.1 and how to resolve it at

Heating, Longer Startup issues after upgrading to Windows 8.1

It has just been about 1.5 years I have purchased this laptop and the way it is behaving now is killing me.
There was absolutely no problem while I was running Windows 8(which was my preloaded OS).
But after I upgraded to Windows 8.1 I am facing numerous problems which I am stating below.
Startup time has increased to double the time it took perviously( even after I disabled unnecessary startup entries ).
Laptop is getting heated from the moment it is started, no matter what I do or I do nothing and keep it idle(which earlier happened only when I played any high graphics game)
HP Support Assistant no longer works in Windows 8.1(I uninstalled and reinstalled it several times still no solution), so I am no longer able to get any technical support.
Right click on Desktop takes ~10 seconds to open up the menu(Once again checked and found no unwanted third party context meny handler entry blocking the right click)
Please help me out as soon as possible.
Currently I am using Microsoft Windows 8.1 x64 Single OS
Product Name-HP Pavilion G6-2236TX NB PC
Product Number-D4B09PA

Sleep and Shutdown issues after upgrading to Windows 10

Hi there,So I'm having issues with sleep and shutdown after I upgraded to Windows 10, the laptop won't go to sleep or shutdown properly. The screen turns off, but the power LED stays on and the fan as well. If I chose sleep it won't wake up no matter what I try, and I'd have to perform a hard shutdown everytime.Any solution for this problem?Thanks.

**I have posted this in another area with the same issue** YES!!!!! A Solution that worked. Spread the news. It has to do with the Intel Virtualization Tehnology. Didn't know what that was until this issue came up in Windows 10. First, find out if this is your issue. 1. I installed the 'Intel Processor Identification Utility' directly from Intel.2. After installation, open the program and go to the 'CPU Technologies' tab.3. If it says 'YES' for Intel Virtualization Tehnology, proceed. Solution...(at least on my system) 1. The next thing you have to do is go into the BIOS. If you have not done this before, proceed at your own risk. You need to restart the computer and enter the BIOS (for me I hit F10 at the HP screen)2. Within the BIOS, there is an 'Advanced Options' section3. In this section there is a line for 'Intel Virtualization Tehnology' and it will say enabled or disabled. My computer said disabled.4. If this is the case, change the option to 'ENABLED'; then SAVE and EXIT from the BIOS. The Computer will restart and from that point on Shut Down, Sleep, etc. has worked. WOW this was a frustrating issue. Almost went back to Windos 8. I take no credit for this solution, I pieced it together from other posts on this issue. Hope this helps.

Is anyone else experiencing WiFi issues after upgrading to 8.0.2 ?

after upgrading to iOS 8.0.2 my iphone 5s is not connecting to the wifi network available !

Apple is still signing for 6.0.1 so you can RESTORE BACK to 6.0.1. Just download the 6.0.1 IPSW for your device and then press the shift key while pressing restore (on windows) which will open a window. Select the downloaded IPSW and you'll be back on 6.0.1. And since Apple is still signing 6.0.1 THIS IS NOT A HACK
OR AN UNAUTHORIZED downgrade. So it DOES NOT void your warranty because Apple is allowing you to downgrade because they've allowed the 6.0.1 window to remain open. I did it for my iPhone and it all worked out fine.

Wifi issues after upgrading from Maverick to Yosemite. No solutions have worked.

I upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.1 from Mavericks. Having wifi issue where I can't connect to my home network. It connects for 5 seconds than I get "no IP address", and then the connection drops. A free local wifi connection does work. Any ideas until this issue is fixed by Apple? My home router worked fine in Maverick. I tried all the online suggestions but nothing has worked. Have not downgraded yet to Maverick but thinking about it.

Not necessarily. I've upgraded several systems here, ranging from tablets
to laptops to virtual machines with a combination of IE, Chrome, and
FireFox and I've not experienced this on a single system. Also, your post
is the first time I've seen this issue reported in the forums.

Touchsmart 600 1390 - issue after upgrade to Windows 8 - DVDBD wont work.

I successfully upgraded to Windows 8 and although the harddisk ran non stop for about a week, with me dubbing 8 - WindowsWait... It eventually finished whatever it thought it was doing and is about normal now.
EXCEPT the DVDBD that is onboard now can not read any media. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Windows driver several times but without any resolution. I have searched the HP website but there is nothing i have found there - drivers or advice.
Any ideas?

Hello,
You have used the drive to install windows right? Was the unit working before you have done the upgrade?
Optical drives should not give any problem after an upgrade, other components you might not get a driver due to manufacturer not releasing it, but not the optical drive...
Make sure you have your windows activated and you have all windows updates already installed...
How is the optical drive detected in windows explorer and device manager? Can you tell me how the drive is detected?
Thanks,
I work for HP! Please remember to provide and if this helped click ON

G60 laptop left without sound and bad screen issues after upgrading to Windows 8

I have a G60-458dx notebook that I just recently upgraded to windows 8.
Since then I have had no audio whatsoever, and anytime I try to wake the computer from sleep or hibernation, the screen won't turn on. To get the screen back I have to do a forced shut-down, then turn it back on.
I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling all of the relevant drivers (e.g. video, audio, chipset) to no avail. If anyone has any info on available generic drivers that would work, or updates from hp, you would make me a very happy man.
Here are the hardware id's for my audio and video.
HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5051
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2A42

Try uninstalling the audio driver and installing this generic IDT audio driver: http://goo.gl/0IMBd
If that does not resolve your audio issue, then more than likely it is a hardware compatibility issue.

Portege M700 rotation issues after upgrading to Windows 7 64 bit

I upgraded to windows 7 last night on my portege m700. It is Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. I installed all the drivers under the Windows & 64 bit category on Toshiba's page. Everything works great except the screen will not properly rotate when put into tablet mode. I can push ctrl+alt+ arrow keys to rotate it, and I can also use windows mobility center to rotate 90 degrees at one time. I am wondering what I need to have it rotate once snapped into tablet mode, like it did in Vista. I have the Toshiba rotation utility installed but it doesn't seem to be doing anything. It seems like it is not receiving a signal from the monitor that it has been rotated.
I need this for school, so any help is GREATLY appreciated.

Hi
I think there are not all Win 7 64boit drivers published and released for M700 and you will have to install also some drivers released for Vista 64bit!
For example:
*Tablet PC Extension Package v 1.0.0.1 for Vista 64bit*
This driver package installs a range of important utilities.
_TOSHIBA Rotation Utility:_ Set the default screen orientation you want the system to use when switching from PC to Tablet mode, or vice-versa.
_TOSHIBA Tablet PC Buttons Driver:_ You can dedicate tablet buttons to performing common tasks so that you can easily operate your tablet computer when you're away from your workstation. For example, you can dedicate a button to open a program or to change your screen orientation.
_TOSHIBA Accelerometer Utilities:_ These Utilities are a set of hardware utilities that work with the motion sensors built into you machine. With the Accelerometer, your machine will be able to detect the way you are holding it at any given moment. You can set the machine to perform a specific function when the unit is quickly tilted to the left or right, or to the front or back. You can also take control of the cursor in some applications and make it move by leaning the PC in a certain direction.

U410 Touch WiFi Issues

So I bought this ultrabook, and it seems it has the problems the U410 had. Why hasn't Lenovo come up with a fix for this? I'm hearing this fault occurs in many other U410 Touch's.
Anyone have any kind of fix for this that won't void the warranty? So far I've tried uninstalling power saving software, updating wireless drivers, resetting my access point, unchecking 'allow PC to turn device off' in the wireless card settings. Any other ideas?

Any answers as to what I can do before I return this laptop to the seller tomorrow?
